This gym has one MAJOR issue. The roaches. Listen, I understand that it’s difficult to stop them from coming in. Whatever. My issue is that they don’t clean up the dead roaches for DAYS. I mean it. DAYS will go by before they are gone. Genuinely makes me sick to see them out. I come to the gym almost daily and am always so grossed out. It’s honestly a major distraction from my workout :( Please PLEASE just clean the dead roaches off the ground!!! The ones in the women’s room are USUALLY gone within a day but if one died under a weight set? Could be a week.

Your average gym. Staff always super friendly, but given the number of gyms in the DC area this golds gym requires additional investment and upkeep as it’s quite worn and outdated in comparison to other gyms in the area.

They have a serious roach problem. It’s nasty and when you bring it up, all they do is say ‘we made a note’.

Today is 12/4/24 and the only action Gold's gym has taken is to have the collections agency send me an email threatening me that i need to pay the false charges that same day....
11/17/2024: I had signed up for biweekly personal training sessions but I had to cut back on my expenses and when I tried to do that I had the same experience expressed by others in reviews. They ignored me after several attempts so I had to have my bank stop the payments, yet I was willing to continue as a member and pay as I scheduled PT sessions. On the back end it appears they were still charging me recurring PT sessions and knowing they had no basis to demand payment or address this with me ditectly they send their fake bill to an attorneys office to intimidate me. In response again i reached out to the gym and email corporate. When i called back they said they had removed those charges from my account and that is what I saw in the app, but then I get another letter and these fraud charges are threatening my credit score. So now I have to escalate this with this attorneys office, the bar association those attorneys are licensed under prosecuting illegal claims, they want to hide behind and submit all the strong evidence to the agencies that monitor this gym and that attorneys office. :) dont steal from consumers, Golds gym Van Ness.

Its a chill gym, but there were way too many roaches. (Big fat red ones) practically all summer. Never seen an infestation last so long.

The Octane Machine was fixed with a proper battery and now works as it should. This is my main machine, so I appreciate that it is fixed!!!

Staff is great but seems to be a lot of turnover. Only 2 squat racks, it leaks when it rains, and definitely some pervy older men. But their turf area has been a nice upgrade.

It's clear this gym isn't a priority for the owners. They've been spending a lot of money on the new gyms in Dupont and Georgetown (which are really nice). Meanwhile this gym is falling apart. Floors haven't been repaired. Barbells are rusty, warped, or weird sizes. The squat racks are janky and there's only two. Not sure what's going on with what used to be the cycling room, would be great if it'd be repurposed. While the staff is generally nice, they stay behind the desk never rerack weights or check out the downstairs. There's been a big roach problem recently, it's not uncommon to see more than a few in one day. Wish this gym would get some love from the owners/management.

Came to the gym for a 7am workout as that is when they supposedly open on Sunday, it is just about 7:45 and they are still not open and I cannot afford to wait any longer as I have a doctors appointment to attend to. Be very weary of choosing this place…

Wonderful staff and plenty of equipment for everyone, and a reasonable fee. Love the place!
